'KING FOR A DAY'

'KING FOR A DAY' Rockdale Intermediate School fifth grader Blake King was named this year's Luminant Scholar for Rockdale ISD. Luminant, the state's largest power generation company, sponsored its annual scholar program in select Texas public school districts. The essay-writing contest provides fifth graders an opportunity to share their thoughts on the state of the environment and how they can improve it, with the authors of the top essay at each school winning $1,000 saving bond scholarships for their future education. Presenting the check to King were Luminant Scholar Director Robert Gentry, Rockdale ISD Supt. Howell Wright and Rockdale Intermediate Assistant Principal Kurt Streck.
